#3 Stampin' Queens

It's Wednesday, and so it's time for another sketch challenge @ Stampin' Queens Sketch Challenge. If you have some time, you should participate in this challenge. We provide you with a workable sketch, and the only restriction we have, is that you use Stampin' Up! supplies. I have added to this challenge for myself. During these hard economic times, I have noticed that folks aren't spending like they use to. So, for the last two challenges, I opened the Beau Chateau DSP, and used the Creative Elements and Elegance Established stamp sets. I wanted to see if I could do more than one challenge with the same supplies. And I used the same supplies for this challenge too!

Here is the sketch:

Here is my card:

The card base is soft suede card stock. I matted the rooster pattern paper on marina mist card stock. I stamped the typewriter in crumb cake classic ink, on very vanilla card stock. This stamped image is matted on crumb cake card stock and then again on a blue flourish pattern paper. I wrapped crumb cake seam binding onto a pink chicken wire pattern paper.

To make the sentiment tag, I stamped the circle in pink pirouette classic ink and then 'create' in soft suede classic ink. I punched the scallop oval out of a scrap piece of brown/pink pattern paper.

To make that cute 'prima' flower, I punched three tiny scallop circles and added a rhinestone jewel to the center. I sponged all the edges with sahara sand classic ink and distressed a few edges, randomly.

Thank you for looking, and please join us for a fun, and work-able sketch challenge!
